A beautiful stay, albeit the price but I think that is to be expect in a city, especially given that it is “fringe seaso
Pros:

The bed was one of the comfiest beds ever. An amazing nights sleep! Enough amenities, all the usuals that you would expect but with the addition of Irn Bru cans and a coffee machine with pods.

Superbe découverte !
Pros:

Très belle surprise ! Cet hôtel est relié au Canny Man's, qui est sans aucun doute le meilleur bar de la planète 😉. L'emplacement est idéal et, comme il est un peu excentré, on profite d'un quartier plus authentique et fréquenté par les locaux, ce qui est un vrai plus. Une excellente découverte que je recommande sans hésiter !

Mehr als erwartet.
Pros:

Fantastisches Hotel mit wirklich extrem freundlichem Personal. Angeschlossen ist ein uriger Pub bzw. umgekehrt. Keine Rezeption, man meldet sich im Hotel. Sehr sauber. Wir hatten nur ein Economy-Zimmer. Das war aber ausreichend und gemütlich.
Zentrum sehr gut mit Bus erreichbar oder ca. 30 Minuten zu Fuß.

Cons:

Alles super

Camera grande in un una palazzina antica. Letto comodo e temperatura della stanza abbastanza buona.
La colazione, servita nel vecchio pub, abbastanza buona ma niente di eccezionale.

La polvere. Sull lampadario c, era veramente tantissima polvere

Bon moment, bonne table, belle chambre mais des ajustements à prévoir pour notre prochaine fois
Pros:

La chambre était bien

Cons:

j'espérais être dans le bâtiment principal comme il y a 2 ans ... j'ai été déçu d'être relégué dans le bâtiment plus loin derrière . Et nous avons eu un soucis avec la douche qui ne donnait que du très très chaud

Pros:

Sehr nettes und ruhiges Hotel außerhalb des Zentrums von Edinburgh. Schottisches Frühstück im dazugehörigen Pub nebenan war sehr gut. Unkomplizierter Parkplatz direkt beim Hotel.

Cons:

Das einzige was nicht optimal war ist die Entfernung zum Zentrum, aber sehr gute Busverbindungen ohne umsteigen in ca. 20 Minuten
